The United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) on Tuesday formed a three-member task-force to hold talks with the three major political parties over the 11-point demand put forth by it earlier and resolve the Madhes issues.

The task-force includes Hridayesh Tripathi of the Tarai-Madhesh Democratic Party, Rajendra Shrestha of the Federal Socialist Forum-Nepal and Ram Naresh Yadav of Tarai Madhes Sadbhawana Party, according to a statement issued by Mahantha Thakur.

The task-force, however, does not include representative from the Sadbhawana Party, which has unilaterally announced fresh protest programme.

Mahato is currently hospitalised in India for treatment.
